If you want to get active again, not just be in less pain, start here đ
Squats are one of the best movements you can do. But if youâre dealing with back pain, knee pain, or foot pain, you can start here rather than jumping straight into full squats.
Hereâs a simple way to build back up:
Practice a box squat.
Lean slightly forward, push through your feet, and stand. Control the movement as you sit back to a box or chair, then drive back up.
Start with 10 to 15 reps a day. As that starts to feel better, you can build it up. Ideally, we want to work towards 50-60 reps throughout the day.
After that, weâll probably be in good shape to move to full squats, and this movement is great because it carries over into most types of activity.
Save this so you remember to practice it daily and start building momentum toward moving better again!
